[edit] Category

Please note that on WP, generally conversion to buddhism=conversion to hinduism is a controversial statement. please ustify your cat. Hornplease 22:26, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Really, only you found it controversial. And all you do is tag along whatever pages I edit and change all my edits. Bakaman%% 22:37, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

I looked at the history on this page and noticed you never edited anything on this page until I did. Then you came around and muttered something about "controversy". Now explain why a random Sri Lankan cricketer would be on your watch list?Bakaman%% 05:44, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Not that it matters, but your edits to Andre Beteille, which I created, Solomon Bandaranaike and Robert Vadra all showed up on my watchlist. Given that two of them were wrong, I naturally followed the category links to see where else you've been adding the category. Note, in addition, people will tend to check in on what you've been doing from time to time, on WP, particularly if you start developing a history on of doubtful edits made without discussion.

If it matters so much, make a Converts to Buddhism category yourselfBakaman%% 06:23, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

It should be obvious, even in the absence of that category, you cannot put misleading categories on the page. Please remove it. Hornplease 08:34, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

All I notice is that you create controversy. Try adding something to the page instead of "controversy-izing".Bakaman%% 14:56, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Adding anything you want to a page is not a replacement for adding something accurate. PLease remove the category. Hornplease 15:56, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Maybe I just don't subscribe to narrow definitions of Hinduism. Nobody finds it controversial except maybe Udit Raj and you. Bakaman%% 16:10, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Um. Hinduism is, as far as I know, not the same as Buddhism - so to have a category which says this person converted to Hinduism when he converted to Buddhism seems flatly wrong. Hence, I've removed it. Sam Vimes 16:49, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 1st class

The template is acting funny. Someone needs to edit the second template so that all the stats (ODI, Test, 1st class, and List-A) show up Bakaman%% 06:11, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Second template is working. Alignment may be off though a bitBakaman%% 06:26, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
